Managing AI engine training

The API Behavioral Security (ABS) AI engine needs to be trained before it can detect attacks on application programming interface (API) services.

The ABS AI Engine training is governed by global variables that are configured using Global configuration update REST API. The AI training runs for the minimum training time set, but a minimum amount of data must also be received before the training period is complete for a given API. You can check the training status by using the Admin REST API.

The ABS AI Engine must be trained on an API before it can be secured. Whenever a new API is added, ABS automatically trains on the new API before looking for attacks.
